As three pieces of the pipes have been recovered twisted and bent and cut ( apparently with a chisel) into lengths of 3 or 4 in., it is supposed that all the apparatus has been similarly broken up, but even in this disfigured condition the bits should be readily recognised as having formed part of such an apparatus. As thefts of platinum have generally been sooner or later detected, the look- out should be continued for many months. Platinum is a rare metal, in the pos- session of very few persons, so that should any be offered for sale it should at once excite suspicion. Platinum cannot be melted or manufactured under any ordinary circumstances, and to be utilised finds its way in special smelters' hands. It is requested that inquiry be made amongst pawn brokers, jewellers, dealers in old metal, brokers, elec- trical engineers, makers of chemical and electric apparatus, mc- tal smelters, dentists, and all persons using platinum. The above reward will be paid by Messrs. Alexander Cross and Sons, 19, Hope- street, Glasgow, for the apprehension and conviction of the thief or thieves and recovery of the property, or in proportion to the amount recovered.

A. PRODUCED."— DR. NOTESCO. NOTESCO. Many people say, " How is it you claim that your medicines cure so many diseases." We answer :— In ancient times, when heathenism was rampant, people believed in a god for all good, and a god for all evil; a god for joy, and a god for sorrow ; a god to give sickness, and a god to heal sickness. Jupiter ruled the land and Neptune ruled the sea. Ceres gave cs agriculture, Venus gave us love, and Hebe youth. Now we have grown wiser ; we believe in one God only— whose word was power- ful enough to create EVERYTHING. IS it not possible for that same God to send us one remedy by which we shall cure most things 1 There are a great many locks, and to each lock is a key, but it is not every- one who can turn the key. Our " Notesco " is the key to open the doors. Applied externally, it works through the skin and reaches the disease. Taken internally a few times, the doors are opened, tbe disease escapes like a convict out of gaol, with the intention of never returning. Sickness is just like a burglar— it will steal in, either through a cold, dampness of the houses, adulterated food, or from the impure, foul air of crowded tenements, or sewer gas, from which we have to suffer, in this and other cities. The thief is inside ; you can't get him out because the key don't fit. We now give you the true key. Our medicine is an enemy to corruption and pa: n. Any corruption it eats away, any pain it relieves at once. Try it. Be warned in time ; keep a stock of " Notesco" in the house We claim our " Notesco " is superior to any medicine ever presented to the public, and we claim it with justice.

SPIRITUAL SENSES. Our five senses in physical things may be taken as types of something higher and holier in spiritual things. 1. God has given U3 the sense of spiritual hearing to enable ua to understand His truth. Our Lord says, " The sheep follow him, for they know his voice." One of the first directions that God gave to Israel was to diligently hearken unto the voice of the Lord their God, and they had the promise that they should be quiet from fear of evil. God is willing to educate our ears, to give ready, quick ears, to know His voice from other voices, to be willing that He should speak at all times even though it should lead to changing our p'an of life. " Hear, and your souls shall live." 2. Another spiritual sense God speaks of. He says, " Blessed are your eyes, f ir they see." Jesus Christ came to open blind eyes, to lead us out of darkness into light, " the eyes of your understanding being enlightened." God wants us to see spiritual things, to have divine things made clear to us. They are too often shadowy. He would have them distinct in detail, full of beauty, rich in colouring. 3. " Who touched me? " Our Saviour understood perfectly the spiritual sense of touch. ' I will hold thee by thy right hand." We know th9 human touch of friendship ; let us reach out our hands and clasp His, and feel that He is near, upholding, strengthening, invigorating, sympathising. 4. " Come ; taste aud see that the Lord is good." Not eat and drink and get good only, but we are to know the taste of spiritual things, and be so satisfied with them as to lose our taste for other things. 5. In God's meeting- place with men there was the sweet smell of incense. God's hearts and men's hearts meeting in love. He did not speak only, He gave also this sense of His presence. Let us keep this life here full of God. ( SIXTEENTH YEAR.) NOW READY. Price la., post free Is. 6d. MAY'S BRITISH AND IRISH PRESS GUIDE, 1889. ( Published annually in March.)
